Do you have scripture saying that they are? I didn't see one from you.
1Ti 5:1
Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;
1Ti 5:2
The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.
You also have a problem with that above scriptures, since it's lists women as elders too. Don't think so?? The same Greek word is used in both scriptures for 'elder'.

I had already posted these very scriptures and more.
Some people, (and I don't mean you HO), need to drop the "selective reading".
